Document Summary
How much time do people spend at different intensities for that specific sport. Basketball- sprinting for a chase down block, or waiting for foul shots differences in intensities. The more time you have between efforts (recovery) the greater your ability to perform at a power output perspective. Longer recovery the greater work our power output you"re able to exhibit. Basketball game 48mins takes 3 hours (180mins) w/r =1/3. 75. Once you"re past 60 seconds of duration the energy is going to become more and more aerobic. When you"re doing work for less then 60 seconds you"re doing more and more anaerobic. When training for a sport it"s important to train for the right system sprinty sports need anaerobic training same with anaerobic. With increase in mitochondria"s get increase in enzyme activity. Gastrocnemius enzyme activity in untrained (ut) subjects, moderately trained (mt) joggers, and highly trained (ht) marathon runners. Elite athletes train 20-30 hours a week on aerobic training only.
